Tapas catering near Burwood Park
Tapas catering in Burwood Park, cooked live
Tapas and paella go hand in hand, as a starter while the rice cooks, but they work on their own too. We cook gambas al ajillo, Manchego with membrillo and patatas bravas, and we’re often booked for engagement parties and table tapas as a starter.
Near Burwood Park, tapas and sangria suit a garden or field party. Every guest is catered for, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal included, each in a separate pan.
Burwood Park questions
Could we have live paella in West End Common?
Only if the landowner, normally the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we’ll send any information they need.
We are having a ceremony at Church of St Mary: can you cater afterwards?
Yes, at a nearby garden, marquee or hall where we can cook. Live cooking generally happens at the reception venue, not the church. Send us the reception address.
Can you cater for vegetarians and vegans?
Of course. We cook vegetarian and vegan paellas in their own pans, alongside the meat and seafood pans.
Is halal food available?
We can. Tell us how many guests need halal food, and we will cook a separate pan.
Is tapas catering available separately?
Of course. Tapas and canapés can be booked on their own.
How much does tapas catering cost in Burwood Park?
Every event is quoted individually, based on what you actually want. Give us your date, numbers and menu ideas for a clear quote.
How long do you need on site?
It depends on the menu and numbers. We will agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you.
Should we have more than one paella?
Normally two or three, so every guest has a choice. We’ll recommend a mix based on diets.
The menu, dish by dish
Croquetas
Crisp outside, creamy inside.
Tortilla española
Tortilla is vegetarian and naturally gluten-free.
Planning for every diet
We cater for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests. To get it right:
- Keep seafood and meat dishes clearly separate
- Pair tapas with sangria, cava or sherry
- Canapés need staff to serve
- Label vegetarian and allergen-free dishes
Canapés circulate with drinks as guests arrive.
Follow tapas with a live paella.
Should I cook it myself?
Some hosts like to cook themselves. Common mistakes are mismatched pans and burners, overfilling and stirring. If you’d rather be with your guests, we will do the cooking.
Hiring a pan and burner is one option, but there is shopping, prep and hours of cooking. A caterer handles all of that.
Live paella or other catering?
For food that gets people mingling, tapas work brilliantly. Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so the menu you choose affects the price. We will suggest options to suit your budget.
